We have the daily transcripts from the recent SCO v. Novell trial, at last. I haven't read them yet myself, but I wanted to share them immediately as soon as the court made them available. We can read them together. I can't wait to read the closing arguments, personally.

The trial began on March 8, 2010, a Monday, and ran for 15 days.

Here they are, all PDFs, and note that 854 and 855 are for the same opening day, 855 being a corrected transcript; for all the others days, there's more than one part to the transcripts:

856 [ part 2] - Opening arguments, day 2, and first witness, Robert Frankenberg. [Groklaw coverage.] Note that one part of this transcript is restricted. The docket entry reads: "Docket Text: NOTICE OF FILING OF OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT for dates of March 9, 2010-Jury Trial(Parts Two and Three) before Judge Ted Stewart, re [567] Notice of Appeal,. Court Reporter/Transcriber Patti Walker, Telephone number (801)364-5440." So one part is apparently not for us.

869 [ part 2] - Jury instructions, closing argument by Stuart Singer and Brent Hatch for SCO; then Sterling Brennan, part 2, for Novell; then Singer again for brief rebuttal. Case goes to the jury. [Groklaw coverage.]

Update: Another puzzling note on the docket:

07/20/2010 - Deadlines terminated. Transcript deadlines terminated for docket entry 855. Original transcript will remain restricted. A corrected version was added and has been released. (rks) (Entered: 07/20/2010)

I think it means that what we have is the corrected version, but I'm not positive.

Update 2: The mystery about #855 is now solved. They had mistakenly provided a duplicate of #854. Here's 855 now. So I have replaced it in the list of PDFs.
